Hi there,

Is there a way to make teaming in windows 10 as Active/Active not Active/Standby.

I had used the command of power shell "New-NetSwitchTeam", but unfortunately the firewall which I'm using is sensitive to Standby link and consider it as failed link, due to that the secondary or standby unit of the firewall is consider as failed unit.

Thanks & Best Regards
Ahmad

    Hi ,

    What's the OS version of your windows 10? What's the error message when you run New-NetSwitchTeam? Please post the screenshot for us to learn your situation better.

    Based on my understanding, you are using third-party firewall which prevents you from creating an active/standby NIC teaming. Is it right? Please feel free to let me know if my understanding wrong.

    If yes, you should contact third-party firewall's vendor to get further help.
